My wife was very confident. It is definitely on Sunday. Adam's birthday is on Sunday. And so we got ready and arrived at the home. It was strangely quiet. We knocked at the door and out hostess appeared. She was shocked to see us. The birthday party was yesterday,she told us so. anyway, we handed her our gifts for Adam. Being a good hostess, she whipped out quickly some snacks and we had a roaring time.My wife tells me she must now marked it on her diary instead of relying on her memory for such things. The hostess saved the day for us.
Were you ever caught in such near-embarrassing or embarrassing situations?

I've done that before and felt bad and embarrassed!! blush
I'm glad you went and still had a good time even though it was a day later.
At least the hostess was gracious enough to understand!
I bet you had a better time than the guests the day before had!!
I've started putting appointments in a pocket size date book and keeping track of it daily, it helps a lot.

Yes, we are more careful about this now. In fact, we just went over to our hostess house for the Hari Raya Aidil Fitri Muslim celebration today. We had a good lunch. Adam is very much bigger and as usual mischievous.

That was funny but i think its also nice that you were accomodated that way eventhough you were already late for the party. I think its much more embarrasing if you arrived there a day before the party and much more embarrasing if you even dressed up for that party on the wrong day. hehe. I have never experience that kind of situation because im really particular with my dates of my appointments.

Thankfully, all's well that ends well. We all had our fun on the silly mistake. I do hope never to ever repeat the mistake again. Could be embarrassing this time around, if it happens again.

A couple of months back there were a spate of weddings.There was a gap of a day and there were 2 functions on one day.I took my wife to a function on the day when there was a gap between the two functions and to my horror the hall was empty as there was no wedding that day.I suppose this is the result of age and forgetfulness.


myLot reputation of 96/100. jonjee0203 (1854)   ranked 844 out of 38,624 in life  4 months ago

Yes, that would truly be embarrassing. Since no one was there, it did not cause you embarrassment but a trip that could have been avoided.I remembered trying to attend an annual general meeting of a public listed company in May this year. Not only was it the wrong day but also the wrong hotel. How bad can this be!

hehe if i am ever unsure of something i call and find out.. if possible. sometimes its not possible.. and in that case i would be slightly embarrassed to show up at the wrong day!

Yes, we were too sure we were right. So we had to pay for the mistake. However, it turned out all right. We had a gracious hostess who saw to it that all well's that ends well. It was great day of mistake. We had fun!
